The full form of p-Nitroacetanilide is Para Nitroacetanilide. Nitroacetanilide is a combination of Nitro and Acetanilide. An organic substance, acetanilide, is processed through nitration to prepare p-Nitroacetanilide. It can be used to manufacture dyes, medicines, anti-oxidants, and gasoline, which have become essential in current times. However, the primary purpose of preparing the p-Nitroacetanilide is to

Amine is a chemical compound obtained from ammonia (NH3), often called a derivative of ammonia. These derivatives form weak bases as defined in organic chemistry. The amines in organ nitrogen compounds contain nitrogen atoms in a lone pair. The alkyl group substitutes the amines present in hydrogen atoms. The nitrogen compound derivative contains alkaloids present

An amide group consists of a nitrogen atom, a carbon atom, and an oxygen atom. Other than this, we also need three other groups to define its structure and name completely. The general formula goes like- R1-(C=O)-N-(R2) (R3) here; all the R groups can be either hydrogen or any other hydrocarbon in general. The –(C=O)N=

The tollen test is used to evaluate whether an aldehyde or ketone is present in a given unknown solution.  This test, commonly known as the Silver-Mirror Test, is named after German scientist Bernhard Tollens. Compounds with the functional group >C=O are known as carbonyl compounds. Aldehydes (R-CHO) or Ketones can be used (R-CO-R). Any of

Tollens Test is a great way to tell the difference between aldehydes and ketones. The silver mirror test is another name for this qualitative lab test. Compounds with an aldehydic group are commonly used in the Tollens test (aldehydes,alpha-hydroxy ketones and formic acid-its -COOH behaves like an aldehydic group).  It produces a white silver ppt

Amines are derived from ammonia. Alkyl or aryl groups replace one or more hydrogen atoms in ammonia. The –NH2 group is known as an amino group. Amides have a nitrogen atom attached to the carbonyl group. Amines are further divided into three categories: aliphatic amines, aromatic amines, and heterocyclic amines. When an alkyl group is

Amines are derived from ammonia. Alkyl or aryl groups replace one or more hydrogen atoms in ammonia. The –NH2 group is known as the amino group. Amides have a nitrogen atom attached to the carbon of the carbonyl group. The nitrogen atom has a pair of non-bonded electrons. Amides have similar chemical properties to that
